THE PUBLIC DEBT.
A Very Rapid Increase Under Decreas.
ing Circumstances.

The assumed rapid decrease of the
public debt of the United States, as
shown in the statements published,
has seemed very marvellous to for
eigners. The experience of other ma
tons with their public debt leads
them to doubt the statements of this
country. Most of them have contin-
ually increasing instead of decreas-
ing national debts.
How then, they ask can the United
States diminish its debt so rapidly?
The prosperity of the people dur
ing all these years has been unabat-
ed. In fact the country has never
seen such era Of general prosperity.
The two conditions appear to be con-
Trajectory.
Are the statements true?
In one sense they r undoubtedly
correct but the public debt has large
ly increased since the war. 1t has ac-
cumulated to the great inventors and
discoveries whose successful efforts
have eased the burdens of labor and
made pleasant the pathways of toll.
A grateful public should also ac-
knowledge its Indebtedness to those
who have promoted health and hap
piness. The proprietors of Warmers
safe cure have given to the public a
specific for all kidney disorders, and
the innumerable train of frightful
diseases that are caused by them. The
late public teacher, DIR. Dio Lewis,
who seldom prescribed medicines o.
any sort, gave to this renowned spe'
cific his warm commendation, and
said if he found himself suffering
from any kidney disorder he should
use it. Kidney disorders are the
cause of SO per cent, say the proprie,
tors of that remedy, of all diseases. i
you keep the kidneys in health, you
have the greatest assurance of free
dom from all disease.
Before the discovery of this rene
dy, bright's disease was deemed in
durable. Now the number of vic
Tins of the dread kidney diseases
who r by it snatched from death
constantly increases, and as the etfica'
cy of the remedy becomes more wide
ly known those who have reason Il
be devoutly thankful that this won
derful specific has been made known
to the world, multiply with rapidly
increasing ratio.

Who Got Here First ?

New England Farmer.
The histories will have to be revis-
ed now that Boston has a statue to
Left Erikson who discovered Ameri-
ca in the year 1000. This statue was
unveiled and transferred to the city
last Saturday. Prof. Z. N. Horsford
of Cambridge delivered the dedicato-
ry address. 1t was essentially q re-
view of the Icelandic traditions and
the known facts of history. The
great fact sustained by the array of
authority was that somewhere to the
southwest of Greenland, distant at
least a fortnight's sail, there were for
800 years after the beginning of the
eleventh century Morse colonies on
the coast of the continent of America,
with which colonies the home coun-
try maintained commercial inter
course. The country to which the
merchant vessels sailed was called
Vinland. The fact next in impor-
lance that this history establishes is,
that the first Northman to set foot on
the shores of Vinland was Left Erik
son,

Treatment for Warts.

1t is now established, says a writer
in a Medical Press, that the common
wait, which is so unsightly and Of
ten So %proliferous on the hands and
face, can be easily removed by small
doses of sulphate of magnesla taken
internally. M. Coirat, of Lyons, has
drawn attention to this extraordinary
fact. Several children treated with
three-grain doses of EPSON salts
morning and evening were promptly
cured. M. Aubert cites the case OF
a woman whose face wss disfgured
by these ex%crescences who was cured
in a month by a drachm and a half
Of magnesia taken daily. Another
medical man reports a case Of very
large warts that disappeared in a
fortnight from the daily administra-
ton of ten grains of the salts.

Nashville American, Nov. Sd.

Nashville American, Nov. Sd.
The Ottawa dispatch published this
morning is the most horrible and at
the same time the m stsorrowful tale
thatthe vice of intemperance, with
its long list, has given to the public
in many a day. Ittells offs man so
debased and so completely under the
dominion and power of the habit
that he sold his own daughters one
by one, to savage Indians and to a
Chinaman, and forced them into this
horrible life for money to buy whis-
ky, the Indians claiming them as
their property, and rescuing them by
force when they had made an escape.
Ifanything in human life reaches
a lower plane than this we have new
er heard of it. But that best known
of all mans enemies did it.

Mutton suet as a Household Remedy

Herald of Health.
1t is very vexing and annoying, in
deed, to have ones lips all break out
with cold sores, but, like the measles.
tits far better to have the cold strike
out than to strike in. A drop of
warm mutton suet applied to the
sores at night, Just before retiring,
will 500 cause them to disappear.
This is also an excellent remedy for
parched lips and chapped hands. 1t
should be applied at night in the Ii
guild state, and be well rubbed and
heated in before a brisk fire, which
often causes a smarting sensation,
but the toughest of hands, by this
treatment, will often be restored to
their natural condition by one appli-
cation. If every n could but know
the healing properties of so simple a
thing as a little mutton suet, no
housekeeper would ever be without
it. Get a little from your butcher,
fry it out yourself, run into small
cakes, and put away ready for use.
For cuts and bruises it is almost in
dispensable, and where there are
children there are always plenty of
cuts and bruises. Many a deep cash
that would have frightened most
women into sending for a physician
at once, l have healed with no other
remedies than a little mutton suet
and plenty of good CASTLE soap. A
wound should always be kept clean,
and the bandages changed every day,
or every other day. A drenching of
warm soap suds from the purest soap
that can be obtained is not only
cleansing but healing then cover
the surface of the wound with a bit
of old white muslin dipped into melt
ed mutton suet. Renew the drench-
ing and the suet every time the band
ages are changed, and you will be as
tonished to see how rapidly the ug-
liest wound will heal"

With half a dozen beaux

And her maiden moments fly,

When she marries, on my life,
She will make the dearest wife
In the world.

Pumpkin Pie.-The Pumpkin
should be fi%ne-grained and have a

place of Pumpkin the pies will have
a much richer favor than if made
out of the vegetable by whose name
they are called. Peel and cut the
Squash or Pumpkin into long strips,
and steam until tender; then put
through a fine sieve. For each pie
allow one egg, halfa cupful ofSquash,
one cupful of boiling milk, two tea

About fifteen miles south of Meri-

foot of a hill. The water is almost
as sour as lemon juice. With the
addition ofsugar it makes first-class

The spring was recently discovered,
and is not supposed to possess any

Manure is often applied to trees in
small compact circles closely against

Country Gentleman. The feeding
roots are not there, but are many feet

the manure where the roots cannot

BoiIs and CarbunCles,

which defy ordinary treatment, yield to
Ayers Sarsaparilla after a comparative
ly brief trial.
Mr.. G. X. Murray, of Charlottesville,
Va, writes that for years he was af-
iicted with boiis which caused him
much suffering. These were succeeded
by carbuncles, of which he had several
at one time. He then began the use Oh
Ayers Sarsaparilla, and after taking
three bottles, the carbuncles disap-
peared, and for six years he has not had
even a pimple.
That insidious disease, Scrofula, is
the fruitful cause of innumerable COM
plants, Consumption being only one Of
many equally fatal. Eruptions, ulcers,
sore eyes, glandular swellings, weak
and wasted muscles, a capricious appe-
tite, and the like, are pretty sure indi-
cations of a scrofulous faint in the
system. Many otherwise beautiful faces
are disfgured by pimples, eruptions,
and unsightly blotches, which arise
from impure blood, showing the need Of.
Ayers S~arsaparilla to remedy the evil.
All sufferers from blood disorders
should give Ayers %Sarsaparilla a fair
trial, -avoiding all powders, ointments,
and washes, and especially cheap and
worthless compounds, which not only
fail to effect a cure, but more frequently
aggravate and confirm the diseases they
are fraudulently advertised to remedy.
